The Race Against Time Is On in ‘Alice Through the Looking Glass’ Trailer

It’s time to save the Hatter when Alice returns to Wonderland in Disney’s Alice in Wonderland sequel, Alice Through the Looking Glass.

“When the day becomes the night, and the sky becomes the sea, the clock strikes heavy, there is no time for tea,” purrs the ever enigmatic Cheshire Cat. “And in our darkest hour, before my final rhyme, she will come back home to wonderland and turn back the hands of time.” In the new trailer, we learn that once again a significant amount of time has passed since Alice Kingsleigh has returned to Wonderland, and in that time her old friend the Mad Hatter has landed himself in some trouble and she’ll have to face Time himself to rescue him.

Alice Through The Looking Glass will see the return of Mia Wasikowska, Anne Hathaway, Johnny Depp, Helena Bonham, Alan Rickman, Stephen Fry, Michael Sheen and Timothy Spall. Newcomers include Sacha Baron Cohen as Time and Rhys Ifans as Zanik Hightopp, the Mad Hatter’s father.
